You have been advised. 4 Privet Drive Little Whinging, Surrey The black 1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback, a classic in America, pulled into the driveway of the fourth house on Privet Drive.

The driver was young with black, unruly hair. After shutting off the engine, he and his passenger sat silent for a moment, absorbing in their surroundings. The passenger, a blonde haired girl as young as her counterpart, spoke a few words before the driver opened his door and got out of the vehicle. The young man wore black jeans, a white long sleeve t-shirt, black and white Vans, and a black leather jacket. On his forehead, there was a faded lightning bolt scar. As he got out, he saw the curtains draw closed. "So…I guess they did come back." Harry Potter said before closing his door and going up to the front door of the house of pain he had lived in for roughly thirteen years. The man hesitated before knocking on the door with a quick but hard double tap. "Hello, how may I…" The horse-faced woman began before recognizing her nephew. "Petunia? Who is it, dear?" Her husband called from inside the house. Harry knew that the obese man was probably eating another over-portioned meal at the kitchen table.

Harry glared at the woman he had called aunt before looking over her shoulder and yelling, "Maybe if you answered the damn door, you would know, you fat fuck!" Petunia looked aghast, and when Vernon appeared, he looked enraged to say the least. "How dare you call me that, you-" Vernon was interrupted by Harry's right fist connecting with Vernon's huge belly. The force behind Harry's blow managed to penetrate the fat called Vernon's stomach and jar the man's whole body. "Don't you dare even mutter that word in my presence ever again!" Harry shouted as he slammed the door shut with his foot while Petunia stepped back in shock. Harry's emerald eyes were filled with anger that easily outmatched Vernon's previous rage. "Dad!" Dudley called from the banister when he saw his father doubled over. "Hello, Dudleykins. Do you remember me?" Harry spat each word out as if holding them in would kill him from their venom. "What are you doing here?" The huge young man asked in fear. "I thought it was about time that I set the record straight with all of you asswipes." Harry's voice remained cold and harsh but lost its spitting quality.

Dudley's face paled. He then ran away from the stairs and went further into the house. "Look at that. Someone knows that they are about to face justice for their crimes." Harry smiled. "What are you going to do to us?" Petunia asked, still mildly shocked. Before Harry could answer, Dudley appeared back at the banister, a double-barreled shotgun in his hands. "Put your hands up!" Dudley tried sounding strong but his voice was still feeble. Before Dudley could react, Harry pulled out his wand and stupefied him. "Oh my God!" Petunia screeched. "You killed my baby!" "Get over yourself, whore. He's just unconscious until I choose to wake him up." Harry paused a moment. "Now, back to what I was saying." "Just leave us alone!" Vernon shouted, still on the ground. "Why should I? Did you ever leave me alone? NO! You didn't! The only times you did was to starve me!" Harry yelled back. "What do you want from us?" Petunia cried. Harry seethed in anger for a moment.

Instead of answering, though, Harry walked past Petunia and stepped on the fat man on the floor. "What did you do with it?" Harry asked softly. "Huh?" Petunia responded. "I asked, 'What did you do with it?'" Harry yelled before flinging open the door to his old room. Inside, he was unsurprised to find cleaning supplies, a mop, and a broom. While unsurprised, Harry was further enraged at the site. "It looks like you found the real purpose of this cupboard instead of using it to stuff a small boy away from the world!" Harry shouted. "Yes, and it has never had a better use!" Vernon replied. While Harry was turned, Vernon had gotten up and retrieved the gun. "I see that flicker of fear in your eyes, boy! You are scared of this and rightfully so! I guess you coming back into our lives actually had a purpose. I get to kill you, you frea-" He was halted by a spell connected with his back. "Petrificus Totalus!" Daphne had cast before the man had fallen over. "Thank you, dear." Harry smiled after seeing his girlfriend remove his invisibility cloak.

"Are you going to kill me?" Petunia cried once more, shaking. "Oh shut up, you withering hag!" Daphne shouted before kicking her in the head, knocking the horse-faced woman unconscious. Harry shrugged and stupefied Vernon before unleashing him from his previous curse. When the Durselys awoke, they found themselves in their kitchen tied to chairs. "Here's the deal. You three hate me, and I despise you after everything you put me through. My girlfriend, Daphne, wishes for me to hurt you guys similarly to how you hurt me. I tend to agree with her." Harry said, standing in front of his captives. Daphne stood leaning against the counter with a knowing smirk on her face. A look of dread and fear appeared and remained on the family's faces. "I could easily burn you, electrocute you, break your bones, tear your muscles, or even just give you pure pain." Harry paced in front of his muggle dementors while slowly listing off the possibilities. "I won't, though. As much as I want to hurt you and kill you, I know that I can't.

It isn't because I am too weak or that I don't have the stomach. Trust me, I do. I saw many people that were once my friends fall dead a few weeks ago. No, it is because in destroying you I don't want to become you." Harry said. A look of relief flooded the evil people's faces in such a way that they cried tears of joy. Harry grinned and said, "I wouldn't be relieved just yet. I said I wouldn't physically harm you. That doesn't mean you three are not going unpunished." "What do you mean, Frea-" Vernon began before going unconscious from a wide spell arc Harry had cast with his wand. A week later, the household had returned to normal. The Dursleys had brushed off Harry's parting words as a way to torture them for the rest of their lives. The Dusleys thought that they had outsmarted the boy. It was noon, and the Dursleys were eating another meal at the table. Suddenly, police bursted into the house through the back and front door. The officers quickly arrested the three and put them in their cars.

The whole time Vernon was shouting about how much of an outrage this was, but the police ignored his screams. As the three cars containing the family pulled out of the driveway of the fourth house on Privet Drive, the whole neighborhood paid watch to this event, humiliating the family beyond compare. After traveling down many English streets, the family made one more left turn before arriving at the station. On the sidewalk, Harry and Daphne stood side by side holding hands and waving at the three villains Harry had faced for many years without any help. Both of them had smiles that would appear to be normal to the bystander but the Dursleys knew these smiles to be full-blown grins. They had certainly used it enough when torturing Harry. The couple then turned while still in the Dursleys' eyesight and disapparated away. In the next couple of months, Vernon, Petunia, and Dudley Dursley would all be found guilty of all acts they had committed on Harry plus one: murder. The investigators would say that they had been collecting data for months from neighbors and friends.

They would also say that if the Dursleys hadn't been so careless in burying the body of the young boy that was once their nephew that they would never have been able to find out any of this. While laying in their cells in separate prisons, the mental picture of Harry and Daphne smiling at them etched itself in the Dursleys' memories for all of their lives. While seeming as ordinary, boring, unremarkable, and normal as the other houses on the street, 4 Privet Drive in Little Whinging, Surrey had been containing malevolent acts for many years. Now, though, its evil had been purged, and Harry Potter could rest easy at night. AN: I hope you enjoyed this one-shot. I had been thinking for a couple of days and I decided to put forth a less violent and more peaceful story to counteract When You got Nothing Left to Lose. If you haven't read it or The Grey Assassins and you enjoyed this short FanFic, consider checking them out sometime. Feel free to leave a comment or review. As Always: Occidere Prima Vel Occidi.

Cupboard Under the Stairs The Cupboard Under the Stairs [1] was Harry Potter 's room in the Dursley household, at 4 Privet Drive in Little Whinging , Surrey . The cupboard was described as small and dusty, with lots of spiders . History When Harry's father and mother were killed in 1981 , Harry was brought to his maternal aunt, Petunia Dursley . She and her husband Vernon reluctantly took him in, but treated him poorly, mostly because his parents had been magical and they feared that Harry would also turn out to be a "freak".

Instead of being given a real bedroom, Harry was kept in the cupboard under the stairs. Harry's cousin Dudley is roughly the same age and used to jump up and down on top of these stairs so sawdust would fall onto Harry. The Dursleys' fears about Harry being magical turned out to be correct, as Harry received an invitation to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1991 . The first letter was addressed: Mr H Potter The Cupboard under the stairs. This prompted the Dursleys to allow Harry to move into what had previously been Dudley's second bedroom . Despite the Dursleys' numerous attempts to prevent Harry from accepting the offer, he soon went to Hogwarts. From 1992 onwards, Harry slept in Dudley 's second bedroom and the cupboard was used by the Dursleys to store Harry's magical possessions while he was staying with them during the summer holidays, until the Dursleys learned of Sirius Black 's existence and no longer made Harry hide his things there. In 1997 , as Harry left 4 Privet Drive for the last time, he took a look inside the cupboard, which was now being used to store stacked shoes and umbrellas.

There is the Muggle world and the world of Hogwarts School. In the Muggle world Harry lives at 4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, England. The time seems to be present or contemporary. The Hogwarts world is a magical world, Perched atop a high mountain on the other side [of a black lake], its windows sparkling in the starry sky, was a vast castle with many turrets and towers.

Log In To Your GradeSaver Account Email 4 Privet Drive | Harry Potter Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia — Minerva McGonagall [src] 4 Privet Drive is the street address of the home owned by Vernon and Petunia Dursley . They lived in this home with their son, Dudley as well as their nephew, Harry Potter , son of Lily Potter , Petunia's late sister and Lily's husband James Potter . Privet Drive lies in the village of Little Whinging , which is located in the county of Surrey , near London in the southeast of England. The neighbourhood consists of a number of almost exact replications of the Dursley residence — row upon row of executive houses for executive people. It's unknown as to whether Dudley lived in the house with his family after he married. Contents [ show ] History "While you can still call home the place where your mother's blood dwells, there you cannot be touched or harmed by Voldemort . He shed her blood, but it lives on in you and her sister. Her blood became your refuge. You need return there only once a year, but as long as you can still call it home, there he cannot hurt you. Your aunt knows this.

I explained what I had done in the letter I left, with you, on her doorstep. She knows that allowing you houseroom may well have kept you alive for the past fifteen years" —Albus Dumbledore telling Harry Potter about the powerful magical protection Harry has while he calls Privet Drive home [src] Rubeus Hagrid delivering Harry Potter to Privet Drive The Dursleys bought the house and started living in it in 1977 . [1] Albus Dumbledore first visited the house in 1981 , delivering the baby Harry Potter to be put into the Dursleys care after the murder of his parents. Harry wasn't the only thing that Dumbledore left behind him on this occasion: he also invoked strong magic granting Harry absolute protection from Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters whilst he was at the house, as long as Harry could still call Privet Drive his home, until he came of age on his seventeenth birthday. As it happened, the Order of the Phoenix chose to move Harry to a different safe house — during the famous "Seven Potters" operation — a few days in advance of his seventeenth birthday, after which the magical protection was broken.

Before the Order's arrival, however, Vernon Dursley was worried that the plan was actually a cover for a plot by Harry to "get the house". Harry scoffed at this theory, noting "Just in case you've forgotten, I've already got a house ". Both Harry's words and his tone of voice silenced his uncle, who couldn't think of a good argument against that. The Advance Guard collecting Harry from Privet Drive The Advance Guard assembled here when they came to take Harry to 12 Grimmauld Place in the summer of 1995 , as did the members of the Order of the Phoenix who were part of the Seven Potters plan in 1997 . The house was temporarily connected to the Floo Network by Arthur Weasley when the family came to pick Harry up to take him back to the Burrow for the remainder of the summer holidays in 1994 . The fact that the fireplace was boarded up caused something of a problem, as wizards and witches aren't used to this sort of thing happening to their fireplaces and thus weren't expecting such an obstacle to be put in their path.

In the end, Arthur destroyed the fireplace in order to get out, although he was kind enough to fix it before he left. Appearance "Colours like peach and salmon pink are distinctly un-magical, and therefore much favoured by the likes of Aunt Petunia . " —The colours on the inside of the house [src] The entrance way The home consisted of two floors. Inside, the house was, if anything, even neater than the perfectly presented gardens. Nymphadora Tonks in particular was moved to comment about how clean it was when she visited as part of the Advance Guard , although it has to be said that she is used to the walking mess that is her father, Ted Tonks . The downstairs consists of a living room, dining room, kitchen and hall. And, of course, the cupboard under the stairs (Harry's old room) which is full of spiders and just large enough for a young boy to sleep in. However, when Harry's first letter from Hogwarts arrived via Owl post it was addressed to "Mr Harry Potter, the cupboard under the stairs".

It is believed that Vernon then became frightened by the idea that the magical world knew how poorly Harry was being treated and decided to move Harry to Dudley's spare room to keep himself from getting in to trouble. The upper floor was known to contain at least one toilet . The inside of the living room The living room has a boarded-up fireplace, in front of which sits an electric fire , though it is unknown as to whether it was boarded-up before Vernon and Petunia moved in, or whether they boarded it up. It was most likely boarded it up to forgo having to clean it and provide regular maintenance to keep it safe for the inhabitants of the house to use. The living room is also decorated in pastel colours: badges, salmon pinks, and peache. The kitchen The kitchen is filled with spotless modern top-of-the-range appliances, including a wide-screen television, seems to be mostly pink and white in colour, and was described as being surgically clean. [2] The dining room has a sizeable table just large enough to hold thirty-seven birthday presents and a few plates of bacon and eggs.

The layout upstairs used to consist of Vernon and Petunia's room, a spare room, Dudley's room, and Dudley's other room (in addition to a bathroom of course). Dudley's other room (the smallest of the bedrooms) was given to Harry by Vernon in 1991 — not an act of kindness but an attempt to prevent him receiving his acceptance letter to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry . This didn't go down well with Dudley of course, but he couldn't manage to make Vernon change his mind. The plan didn't work anyway, as Rubeus Hagrid eventually appeared to put the letter directly into Harry's hand, but Harry was allowed to keep the bedroom anyway. The smallest bedroom Inside his room, Harry had a bed, a wardrobe and a desk, and when he stayed there he kept his Hogwarts trunk there too. Hedwig lived in a cage set on the desk. The room also consisted of books, presumably Dudley's, which were never read and some of Dudley's old toys, many of them broken or beyond repair.

The other main feature of the room was the cat-flap that Vernon installed in 1992 — this was part of his scheme to keep Harry locked in his room forever following the notorious Dobby -and-the-pudding incident. He also fitted bars to the windows at this time to stop Harry escaping — they only lasted for three days before Fred and George Weasley ripped them off with a flying car, but the cat-flap stayed for years. Presumably it was removed after Voldemort's defeat and the end of the Second War, when the Dursleys could safely return to their house without risk of attack. At this point, finally, they would also have been free of Harry forever, and it's likely that nothing in the world could make Vernon happier.

Harry huddled against the wall of the dark alley, he was wet, cold and very afraid. Dudley was hunting him again. He peeked out from behind the trash container, then pulled back when he spotted Dudley and his gang. The gang stood at the mouth of the alley peering in, trying to spot Potter when a door banged open and two men stepped out. "'ere now! Get away with you!" shouted one of the men. Daunted by the adults, Dudley and his gang retreated and went to see if they could find Harry elsewhere. "Bloody kids," muttered one of the men. "Quit yer griping and come help me. The boss wants this place spotless for tomorrow," said the other. "Aye, he's in a right panic that one. Bloody Inland Revenue coming to inspect the books and the plant.

He doesn't want them to latch onto any reason to complain," replied the first man. "Ain't it the truth now?" replied the second. "My cousin had them visit and ended up regretting it. They are like bulldogs, or shark with a scent o'blood in the water. They keep coming back and back until they find what they're looking for." Harry blinked. Inland Revenue? He thought, they are those tax people Uncle Vernon is always complaining about. It was a germ of an idea. Three times he had complained to someone about his treatment at home. He knew it was wrong, the school had held special sessions where they described what abuse was, and how he could safely report it without getting hurt again. Three times he reported it, once to a teacher, once again to the school nurse, and finally to a policeman that had come to the school to give a talk about police dogs. All three times the adults seemed to care, and then they didn't. And he got hurt again, and for what? No one came to save him, no one cared. Not even the dog! Maybe he was complaining about the wrong thing?

Harry waited a bit longer for the two men to leave, then he crawled out from behind the container. There was one person that would help him and he'd need her help to write the letter. Inland Revenue Office, Manchester, UK... Daisy Silverwood was a middle aged mail clerk who opened general mail to figure out which department it should be routed to. So when she opened the envelope that contained a letter in a childish scrawl she was rather surprised at it's contents. After consulting with her immediate supervisor it was decided to send the letter on to the investigative branch as a precaution, there it would be read by an analyst who would make the determination if the child was in fact reporting a crime or not. Dear Sirs, My uncle is doing bad things. Not only to me, but to other people as well. He says that he has to watch out for you and he hopes you never find out about him. I'm not sure what anyone can do, but Miss Smith, the librarian here in town was nice enough to help me write you about him. Please send some policemen over to put him in jail. Harry Potter ps. Oh, Miss Smith says you need to know more.

I'm writing about Vernon Dursley of 4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey. "Frank! Here, have a look at this!" Frank Kobold stepped over to his coworker's desk and quickly read the note he had been passed. "Kids these days, I swear," he muttered. "No, look!" replied Bob, pointing at his screen. "I ran a cross check on this Dursley character just as a lark. Look, he's pulling down 48k a year, and he's bought two cars in the last two years, both for more than 30k a pop." Frank frowned. "He didn't sell one to buy the other? And who buys today when he can lease it?" "There's no record of a sale and according to our records he still holds titles to both vehicles," replied Bob with a frown. Frank leaned down and tapped a few keys at Bob's keyboard, then he studied the information for a moment. "Damn, this isn't right," he said. Bob nodded. Frank straightened up. "Flag the account and dispatch it to the auditors.

Then maybe we should consider sending little Harry a note of thanks." "I don't know if that's a good idea Frank, look at the note again," replied Bob uneasily. Frank reread the note, then sighed, this was out of their jurisdiction. "You're probably right," he replied heavily. "Very well, it sounds like this Dursley character is a real piece, flag the account with a use caution notice." Bob nodded and started typing at his keyboard. Within minutes a new file had been generated and it was sent into the electronic ether. A computer program would now assume handling the file and see it was routed appropriately. Headmaster's Office, Hogwarts, Escalation Level 0, Day 1... Albus Dumbledore settled back in his chair and poured himself a measure of fire whiskey. "That was a close one old friend," he said to the Phoenix sitting on his perch. "I arrived just in time to obliviate an investigator who no doubt wanted to know about Harry," he added. He smiled and reached for a lemon drop. Life was good and he had managed to avert a minor crisis without anyone knowing any better. Inland Revenue Office, Manchester, UK, Escalation Level 0, Day 10...

The computer noted that the ticket had been in existence for nearly a week now and it had yet to be flagged complete. Fortunately it was programmed for such a condition and it reissued the ticket, routing it to the next available agent. Headmaster's Office, Hogwarts, Escalation Level 0, Day 12... Dumbledore shuffled back into his office, rather annoyed. He was in the middle of taking a bath when the wards at Privet Drive tripped again, causing him to rush there to take care of the situation. This time it was two muggles and they had made it to the front door. They were confronting Vernon! Amidst much shouting on Dursley's part, he managed to obliviate the two investigators, then he had to spend more time placating Dursley. Finally he managed to make it back, but now his bath was cold and he no longer felt like indulging himself with a fresh bubble bath. "The things I do for the Greater Good," he grumbled to himself. Inland Revenue Office, Manchester, UK, Escalation Level 1, Day 22... The computer noted that the ticket still wasn't resolved.

New protocols kicked in and the ticket was reissued with a higher priority. Also a copy was sent to the center supervisor with a notice that this sort of unresolved issues was exactly what the ministry was trying to avoid. Headmaster's Office, Hogwarts, Escalation Level 1, Day 24... Dumbledore stumbled back into his office exhausted. First the wards tripped at Vernon Dursley's place of work, so he had to leave Fudge to quickly put a halt that problem. Only the problem was bigger than a simple obliviate could fix. Two armed agents from Inland Revenue had been sent to Grunnings to bring Vernon in for questioning. Dumbledore actually arrived as they were cuffing him. Around them were nearly a dozen employees. And to make matters worse, when he stunned one of the agents, he received a bullet through his arm for the effort! Madam Pomfrey was not pleased with his injury and it's clearly muggle origin. It took a lot of quick talking plus a wandless compulsion to stop her from contacting the Aurors like she should have.

She was also angry because Dumbledore was magically exhausted having cast 3 stunners, 1 field healing charm and thirty obliviates, plus two apparations in less than an hour. No sir, Dumbledore was not a happy camper at all. But it wasn't entirely for naught, he had managed to find out which particular agency wanted to talk to Vernon and he had apparated to the Inland Revenue field office where he obliviated all knowledge of Vernon Dursley from everyone there. Then he summoned all records pertaining to the case and banished them. Sighing he sat and rested his eyes. It had been a long day, but another crisis had been adverted. He didn't even care that he had left Fudge to his own devices and the man was busy bringing Magical Britain to the brink of war with South Africa. Inland Revenue Office, Manchester, UK, Escalation Level 2, Day 32... The computer scanned the open files and halted process coming upon the open ticket for Vernon Dursley. This was beyond it's programming at this point, so it shunted the file up to the central office at the main ministry building.

That computer accepted the file and immediately flagged it at the second highest escalation level, then it sent another notice to Internal Security that someone at one of the regional offices might be compromised. Internal Security would soon discover one Albus Dumbledore in all his majesty on their internal CCTV tapes. It was clear that the man had done something to the local employees. An arrest on sight warrant was issued to local police stations along with photos. A second set of faxed photos would be sent to InterPol and the FBI in the hopes of identifying the old man in the images. Meanwhile Vernon Dursley was to be placed under surveillance while the Crown built a case against him. Headmaster's Office, Hogwarts, Escalation Level 2, Day 36... Dumbledore crawled into his office, his fancy robes in tatters. He had been busy trying to convince South Africa not to invade when the ward triggered on Vernon Dursley again. He had left the meeting straight away, insulting the South African Ambassador in the process. He appeared in an out of the way corner of Vernon's office to find the corpulent man struggling with four uniformed policemen, plus there were two other suited men in the room.

He strode forward pulling his wand when he was tackled from behind. He had grabbed Dursley by the hand and managed to apparate both of them out of the office, but that was only the beginning of his problems. Dursley was incensed and he tried to hit the Headmaster. Without his wand there was little he could do except try to dodge the blow. Unfortunately 300 year old men are not very good at dodging anything and Vernon had years of experience honing his skills at hitting a moving target. Fortunately for Dumbledore Fawkes intervened, grabbing Vernon and dumping him in the lake, then the bird retrieved Dumbledore's wand, snatching it, right out of the hand of a chief inspector from CID. Armed with his wand, and using the Potter invisibility cloak he returned to Vernon's office and proceeded to obliviate everyone he ran across. He also stole a camera. At least, he thought it was a camera, but it seemed to have no film that he could find. The theft of that particular digital camera would result in next year's model containing a built in gps tracking device for all Police models.

With the agents sent on their way, Dumbledore fished Vernon out of the lake and calmed him down with an excessive use of calming charms and bribes, then he took him back to his office. Now Dumbledore sat, breathing heavily, exhausted from his ordeal and somehow he'd have to figure out a way of paying off Dursley! Those blasted Goblins still denied him access to the Potter Vaults. Inland Revenue Main Office, London UK, Escalation Level 3, Day 42... The computer noticed the file was still not closed and did the electronic version of a frown, then it started spitting out orders in a dozen different directions. All persons at 4 Privet Drive were to be detained for questioning. All bank accounts, properties, stocks, bonds and securities owned by Vernon Dursley were to be seized. An arrest warrant was issued for Vernon Dursley on the charges of Tax evasion, possible subverting of Government Agents, possible bribing of local officials, other charges pending. Suspect is considered dangerous. 4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey... Albus Dumbledore knew something was beyond wrong when he arrived.

He had wisely decided to be a little cautious and had arrived via the floo at that old squib's house. Arrabella Figg was just a piece of window dressing he had put in place in case someone questioned why Harry Potter had no one watching over him while he was growing up. Stepping from Mrs. Figg's house and nearly tripping over a cat, he cursed under his breath and started walking down the street towards the Dursleys. Unfortunately he wasn't the only one walking in that direction. It seemed the whole neighborhood was! He stopped and stared. "Oh crap," he muttered to himself. "Really old man, crap barely does it justice," said a distinguished looking gentleman that moved to stand next to him. The man pointed to the two television vans. "Can you believe it? Already the media are here, we're probably being seen on 60 million television sets by now. By tomorrow these scenes will be shown around the world." "But why?" stammered Dumbledore. "Rumor has it that the tub o'lard was laundering money," piped up one old lady. "I heard he was working for terrorists, they don't pull this kind of force out for a simple case of black money," added another.

Dumbledore sighed and wondered exactly how to approach this. Privet Drive was cordoned off and there had to be 50 policemen surrounding the house. Vernon was screaming obscenities from a second story window and waving a cricket bat. "They say he's making bombs in his basement!" shouted one of the kids who ran by. Dumbledore could see a group of policemen preparing themselves to storm the house. He reached for his wand, he had to stop this! The distinguished gentlemen standing next to him quickly stepped closer and with a swift movement, stunned the headmaster with a blow to his stomach, then he pushed him to the floor and cuffed him. "We hoped you would show up to help you friend," he said calmly. "We'll be spending a lot of time together exploring why you keep showing up and how you've managed to subvert some of our best officers." The man roughly pulled Dumbledore to his feet. As he did so he inadvertently stepped on Dumbledore's wand, snapping it. The breakage caused a brief flare of magic that went unnoticed by all but Dumbledore. He stared down at his precious, irreplaceable wand in astonishment. The death stick had finally died, destroyed by a muggle.

At 4 Privet Drive the Police and Inland Revenue officers had stormed the house and subdued both Vernon and Petunia, then they turned their attention back to the house and started searching, looking for financial records. The search came to a temporary halt when a voice was heard from the cupboard under the stair. "Uncle Vernon? Please can I come out? I'm hungry, I'll be good, promise!" Epilogue... The computer at Inland Revenue went on to have a successfully long career before being replaced by a newer model in 2010. As happy as a computer can get, it was pleased to note the Dursley ticket had been finally resolved. The obsolete computer was donated to a third world university where it worked for another 40 years before giving out. The accidental burst of magic from the breaking of Elder Wand was ignored by the ministry of Magic. At the time of the burst, they were busy trying, and failing to fight off an invasion of 1000 Zulu shaman and warriors. After three days of heavy fighting, Cornelius Fudge surrendered the ministry to South Africa. Cornelius was shipped off to work at a magical diamond mine and was never seen again.

Harry Potter never attended Hogwarts which had been closed by the South African occupying forces. He went to the Cape Town school of Magic where he excelled in Charms and Transfiguration. Voldemort's one and only attempt to recover a body was thwarted by a shaman who forced the free floating spirit into the body of a skunk. The animal was then given to a petting zoo where it lived a few years before dying, and in the process, taking Voldemort's spirit with it.

I'm Jessica Louise Green And welcome to the story of my life. Before you leave out of pure boredom I'd like to tell you my story is a pretty interesting one. But, I have to bore you with the Introduction first. Right now, I am ten and I live with the Dursley's at 4 Pivet Drive in Little Whinging. My parents had died in a "car crash" and I was adopted. Uncle Vernon took pity on me at the Orphanage I was left in and took me like a daughter. However, they treat Harry, my adopted brother, like dirt.

So here's the Dursley family right now, Uncle Vernon, with his short temper. Aunt Petunia, his wife. Dudley, my "brother". Harry, my other "brother"(He's my favorite), and me. I stand at about four foot eight (currently) and my hair is a version of blonde that looks white. It's a few inches below my shoulders. I always dyed the bottom Sky blue, and it would fade as It got higher until it was completely gone in the middle (like the Picture). Yes, the Dursley's were so nice to me they let me dye my hair. My eyes are electric blue when I'm excited and happy. But they turn a misty grey when I'm sad or angry. I have slender fingers, nails are usually the same color as my hair. My features are not pointed but not round either and my skin is average color. I'm sarcastic, funny, flirtatious, loud, kind, hard-working, classy and creative. I always have a good comeback and a comforting thing to say. I'm almost the exact opposite of Harry in terms of looks, but we get along well.

In fact, we often finish each other's thoughts and sentences. Harry has glasses, messy black hair, piercing but friendly green eyes, and a scar where we have no idea of its origin. The only thing we have in common besides part of our personalities is our scars. His is a lightning bolt, mine is also a lightning bolt. Now that I'm done boring you with the introduction, Ready for the Story? Let's go. ****Note**** This story is full of surprises, that will excite you or maybe even scare you. There are tons of twists that may confuse you slightly, and everything ties in at the end, Like Sherlock Holmes. There is friendship, love, and romance, as well as hate, rivalries and enemies. Your heart will be touched in places you'd never expect, and if you are a truly sentimental person, you may cry. Or, you could feel bursts of joy or sudden sadness, in the most unexpected places.

Harry Potter Filming Locations and Sites in Britain Where Was 'Harry Potter' Filmed? Big Ben welcomes Harry to the big city. By Gene Openshaw Harry's story is set in a magical, largely fictional Britain, but you can visit many real locations used in the film series. Other settings, like Diagon Alley, exist only at Leavesden Film Studios (20 miles north of London). Many of the filming sites are closed to visitors, though, or are an un-magical disappointment in person, unless you're a huge fan. For those diehards, here's a sampling. Spoiler Alert: The information below will ruin surprises for the three of you who haven't yet read or seen the Harry Potter series.

London Harry's story begins in suburban London, in the fictional town of Little Whinging. In the first film, The Sorcerer's Stone (2001), the gentle giant Hagrid touches down on his flying motorcycle at #4 Privet Drive. There, baby Harry — who was orphaned by the murder of his wizard parents — is left on the doorstep to be raised by an anti-magic aunt and uncle. The scene was shot in the town of Bracknell (pop. 50,000, 10 miles west of Heathrow) on a street of generic brick rowhouses called Picket Close. Later, 10-year-old Harry first realizes his wizard powers when talking with a boa constrictor, filmed at the London Zoo's Reptile House in Regent's Park (Tube: Great Portland Street). Harry soon gets invited to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he'll learn the magical skills he'll need to eventually confront his parents' murderer, Lord Voldemort. Big Ben and Parliament, along the Thames, welcome Harry to the modern city inhabited by Muggles (nonmagic folk). London bustles along oblivious to the parallel universe of wizards. Hagrid takes Harry shopping for school supplies.

They enter the glass-roofed Leadenhall Market (Tube: Bank) and approach the storefront at 42 Bull's Head Passage — the entrance to The Leaky Cauldron pub (which, in the books, is placed among the bookshops of Charing Cross Road). The pub's back wall parts, opening onto the magical Diagon Alley, where Harry shops for wands, cauldrons, and wizard textbooks. He pays for them with gold Galleons from goblin-run Gringotts Wizarding Bank, filmed in the marble-floored and chandeliered Exhibition Hall of Australia House (Tube: Temple), home of the Australian Embassy. Harry catches the train to Hogwarts at King's Cross Station. (The fanciful exterior shot in The Chamber of Secrets (2002) is actually nearby St. Pancras International Station.) Inside the glass-roofed train station, on a pedestrian sky bridge over the tracks, Hagrid gives Harry a train ticket. Harry heads to platform 9¾, where he and his new buddy Ron magically push their luggage carts through a brick pillar between the platforms, emerging onto a hidden platform.

(For a fun photo-op, head to King's Cross Station's track 9 to find the Platform 9 ¾ sign, the luggage cart that looks like it's disappearing into the wall, a Harry Potter gift shop...and a 30-minute wait in line for the photo itself.) A red steam train — the Hogwarts Express — speeds the boys through the (Scottish) countryside to Hogwarts, where Harry will spend the next seven years. (The steam engine used in filming is on display at a Platform 9¾ exhibit at the Harry Potter Warner Bros. Studio Tour.) Harry is taught how to wave his wand by tiny Professor Flitwick in a wood-paneled classroom filmed at Harrow School in Harrow on the Hill, eight miles northwest of London (Tube: Harrow on the Hill). In The Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), Harry careens through London's lamp-lit streets on a purple three-decker bus (also on display at the studio tour) that dumps him at The Leaky Cauldron pub.

In this film, the pub's exterior was shot on rough-looking Stoney Street at the southeast edge of Borough Street Market , by The Market Porter pub, with trains rumbling overhead (Tube: London Bridge). In The Order of the Phoenix (2007), the Order takes to the night sky on broomsticks, zooming down the Thames and over London, passing over plenty of identifiable landmarks, including the Tower Bridge, London Eye, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace. They arrive at Sirius Black's home at "Twelve Grimmauld Place," filmed at a park-like square called Lincoln's Inn Fields, near Sir John Soane's Museum (Tube: Holborn). The Millennium Bridge is attacked by Death Eaters and collapses into the Thames in the dramatic finale to The Half-Blood Prince (2009). For Order of the Phoenix (2007) and the first Deathly Hallows (2010), the real government offices of Whitehall serve as exteriors for the Ministry of Magic. Also for the first Deathly Hallows, Harry, Ron, and Hermione fight off disguised Death Eaters in a Muggle café, filmed in the West End's bustling Piccadilly Circus.

And cinema buffs can visit Leicester Square, where Daniel Radcliffe and other stars have strolled past paparazzi and down red carpets to the Odeon Theater to attend the movies' premieres. Near Bath Many scenes showing the mysterious side of Hogwarts were filmed in the elaborate, fan-vaulted corridors of the Gloucester Cathedral cloisters, 50 miles north of Bath. In The Sorcerer's Stone, when Harry and Ron set out to save Hermione, they look down a long, dark Gloucester hallway and spot a 20-foot troll at the far end. In The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry is chosen for Gryffindor's Quidditch team in the halls of the 13th-century Lacock Abbey , 13 miles east of Bath. Harry attends Professor Snape's class in one of the Abbey's peeling-plaster rooms — appropriate to Snape's temperament. (You can visit with recommended Mad Max Tours .) Outdoor scenes from the first Deathly Hallows, in which Harry, Ron, and Hermione take refuge in the woods, were filmed in the Swinley Forest area of Windsor's Great Park.

Oxford Hogwarts, Harry's prestigious wizarding prep school, is a composite of several locations, many of them real places in Oxford. Christ Church College inspired two film sets familiar to Potter fans. In The Sorcerer's Stone, the kids are ferried to Hogwarts and then ascend a stone staircase — the same one that, in real life, leads into the Christ Church College's Great Hall. Christ Church's high-ceilinged dining hall was a model for the one seen throughout the films (with the weightless candles and flaming braziers)...but the actual filming happened on a set at the Leavesden studios. Later in The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry sneaks into the restricted book section of Hogwarts Library under a cloak of invisibility. This scene was filmed inside Oxford's Duke Humfrey's Library. Hermione reads about the Sorcerer's Stone here, too. At the end of The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry awakens in the Hogwarts infirmary, filmed in the big-windowed Divinity School, on the ground floor of the Bodleian Library; Ron also recuperates here after being poisoned in The Half-Blood Prince.

In The Goblet of Fire (2005), Mad-Eye Moody turns Draco into a ferret in the New College cloister. Durham and Northeast England In The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry walks with his white owl, Hedwig, through a snowy cloister courtyard located in Durham Cathedral . Harry first learns to fly a broomstick on the green grass of Hogwarts' school grounds, filmed inside the walls of Alnwick Castle , located 30 miles from Newcastle. In The Chamber of Secrets, this is where the Weasleys' flying car crashes into the Whomping Willow. Southeast England In the second Deathly Hallows (2011), the pivotal scene at Lily and James Potter's home in Godric's Hollow — when Harry becomes the "Boy Who Lived" — was shot in the medieval town of Lavenham, Suffolk, about 75 miles northeast of London. Northwest England Harry and Hagrid speed through Liverpool's Queensway Tunnel on Sirius Black's flying motorcycle in Deathly Hallows: Part I, as they flee a pack of eager Death Eaters.

Wales Shell Cottage, home of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour and a hideout for other characters, appears in both Deathly Hallows movies. The cottage temporarily sat on Freshwater West beach in the southwestern region of Pembrokeshire. It's the same beach where Harry, Ron, and Hermione wash up after leaping off the back of a dragon in Part II. Scotland Many of the movies' exterior shots — especially scenes of the Hogwarts grounds — were filmed in craggy, cloudy, mysterious Scotland (much of it in the Fort William and Glencoe areas). The Hogwarts Express train that carries Harry, Ron, and Hermione to school each year was filmed along an actual steam-train line that runs between Fort William and Mallaig (tourists can ride this Jacobite Steam Train ). The movies show the train chugging across the real-life Glenfinnan Viaduct, where, in The Goblet of Fire, the Dementors stall the train and torture Harry. A train bridge opposite Loch Shiel near Fort William popped up inThe Chamber of Secrets and was used again when the Dementor boarded the train in The Prisoner of Azkaban.

Also in The Prisoner of Azkaban, Hogwarts Lake was filmed using Loch Shiel, Loch Eilt, and Loch Morar near Fort William, and Hagrid skips stones across the water at Loch Eilt. Steal Falls, a waterfall at the base of Ben Nevis, is the locale for Harry's battle with a dragon for the Triwizard Tournament in The Goblet of Fire. Other scenes filmed in the Highlands include a desolate hillside with Hagrid's stone hut in Glencoe, which was the main location for outdoor filming in The Prisoner of Azkaban. Exterior scenes for The Half-Blood Prince were filmed in Glencoe as well as in the small village of Glenfinnan.
